  • 30 oz Canned Salmon Drained; or 1½ cups cooked salmon
  • 1 Egg Lightly beaten
  • teaspoons Dijon Mustard

Instructions

  • Place salmon in a medium bowl. Flake apart with a fork; remove any bones and skin. Add egg and mustard, mix well.
  • Add the diced pepper and celery (you can sauté these ahead of time, if you’d like), bread crumbs, and pepper; mix well.
  • Shape the mixture into 8 patties, about 2½ inches wide and ½ inch thick.
  • Heat 1-2 Tablespoons olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add 4 patties (more if you can fit them, but don’t over crowd the skillet) and cook 3-4 minutes aside, until nice and golden and the cakes are heated all the way through.
  • Combine all the ingredients for the Dill Sauce in a bowl and serve with the salmon cakes.

Notes
